TC Olga

Looks like it might be time for our members from FNQ to start battening down the hatches. Put away all the loose stuff in the yard etc.
With luck it may end up being a fizzer, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
Take care.

Surprisingly not, but i'm sure it will be in a couple of hours!!! There's alot of water floating around already so im sure it won't take much for the roads to go under tonight if it really dumps down. I'm trying to take advantage of the electricity at the moment incase it goes out later but at least I can sit down and enjoy catching up on some reading if it does

Put the raincoats on fellas.
Hot and sticky and wet in the tropics.
Hope the tropical low eventually comes inland and of course heads south.
Cheers Kev.

Ex TC Olga has crossed up north with minimal damage, but reckon I have Neville knocking at my front door!! He/it is a low, so nothing major, and expected to cross the coast tonight ..... nearby, but am having some major wind gusts whipping through my house (am on the beach) ... might scare the snake away
